Fish on Friday

Novelist Zane Grey with a Striped Marlin caught off Tahiti in 1930. This was the largest game fish ever taken on rod and reel up to that time, and weighed 1,040 pounds even after sharks ate close to 200 pounds from its side and tail.
Zane Grey is pictured below with a 758-pound Bluefin Tuna, his first world record, caught near Liverpool, Nova Scotia in August of 1924.
